Instant Pot Goulash

I have to admit, I had no idea what Goulash was until I saw an Instant Pot Goulash Recipe one day recently.  I was looking for some more one-pot meals to add to my Instant Pot rotation and decided we needed to try it.  We kind of adjusted some of the seasoning more for our tastes though.  Instead of using Italian Seasoning we used Tony Chachere’s.  Living in Louisiana I pretty much use Tony Chachere’s on everything.  If you have never tried it…you should!

I did notice that some people make goulash with Worcestershire Sauce and some people make it with Soy Sauce.  We made ours with Worcestershire Sauce.  I think we will try it with Soy Sauce next time and see which one we like best!

Ingredients – Instant Pot Goulash

1 – 2 lbs. Ground Turkey or Ground Beef

1 Tbsp. Nature Seasoning Blend

1 Tbsp. Tony Chachere’s

2 Tbsp. Worcestershire Sauce

1 Tbsp. Minced Garlic

1 – 15 oz. Can Diced Tomatoes

2 – 15 oz. Cans Tomato Sauce

2 Cups Elbow Macaroni

1 cup of seasoning blend (diced onion, bell pepper, & celery)

3 Cups of water

1 Knorr Beef Stock Tub (we love using these instead of liquid beef stock)

3 tbsp. of vegetable or olive oil

 

 

Instructions – Instant Pot Goulash

#1.   First, put Instant Pot on sauté mode (high) and add 3 tablespoons of vegetable or olive oil.

#2.  Next, add ground turkey or beef, seasoning of choice, garlic, Nature Seasoning, Tony Chachere’s and seasoning blend (diced onion, bell pepper, & celery).  Sauté until there is no pink left in the meat.  If you are cooking with ground beef you may need to drain your fat from the pot.  Most of the time I cook it with ground turkey and there is no fat for me to drain before moving onto the next step.

 

#3.  Add your water and deglaze the bottom of your pot scraping off any bits that might be stuck.  (If you don’t use the Knorr Concentrated Beef Stock Tubs you could substitute the three cups of water for 3 cups of liquid beef stock instead.  One Knorr Concentrated Tub makes up to 3 1/2 cups of liquid beef stock.)

#4.  Then add Knorr beef stock tub  and stir until is dissolved.

#5.  Add your noodles to the top of your mixture then the diced tomatoes and tomato sauce.  Do not stir.

#6.  Next, close the lid and turn the steam release valve to “sealing” position.

#7.  Then press the “Pressure Cook” button.  Next, press “Pressure Level” button until you have selected “High Pressure”.  **Please note- If your Instant Pot is still on sauté mode you will need to press “Cancel” then “Pressure Cook”.

#8.  Turn the timer on for 3 minutes. Once pressure builds up, the timer will start counting down. (Meanwhile, you can place some garlic bread in the oven to start warming up. 😊)

#9.  After the timer has completed turn the steam release valve to “Venting” for a quick release of steam. **Warning – The steam is very hot, use a towel to turn the release valve so it does not burn you.

#10.  Finally, after steam has all released stir and serve!
